I had the pleasure of working with Mr. Jenkins as a business partner with Prepaid Legal Services. He was always motivating and had a "lets get this done" attitude. I was so shocked when I received the call about his untimely passing. My prayers and thoughts go out to his family. He had such a good heart and was always willing to lend a helping hand. Have faith in God and lean of him for strength. God Bless

I'm so blessed to have known Mr. Jenkins. I have no regrets only great memories of my dear friend, cousin in law and business partner. I wish I could recieve just one more phone call from him, hearing him doing a three way call for me or making me laugh as usual. I know life can be short so I'm grateful of the powerful moments I had with a great human being. Thank you Katrina for loving Mr. Jenkins the way you did and bringing him into the family so that we all could have a piece of the Mr. Duane Jenkins' contagious happiness. God is with you and those precious babies....much love from me to you all.

To the Jenkins Family,
I only wish I had the opportunity to get to know Duane alittle better in the years that he delivered product for our customers in NE WI. He sounds like a terrific person who will be missed by all his customers. Since I returned from vacation I have emails asking me what happened and what a great guy he was and how he took such pride in what he did for SourceOne. My prayers and thoughts are with you. What a loss to you and to those who knew Duane.

Mourn, But Do Not Grieve
"Blessed are they who mourn, for they will receive comfort." (Matt 5:4)
When sadness comes upon you, when you feel alone or uncertain, overwhelmed by what life seems to have brought you to, then take a deep breath and relax and remember, no matter how out of control things may seem, that God loves you and has a wonderful plan for your life. It is not meant to harm you, but to give you hope and a future. Call on Him and pray and He will listen to you. You must seek Him with all your heart and He will comfort and guide you through your sadness. No matter how distraught you may feel today, remember that your family, friends and even those who you may not know is in prayer with you. Duane did not leave you alone, his spirit lives through all the hearts he has touched, especially your children. And when you feel you can not carry on, God will carry you and the children and directed you on the right road. Let His Words light your way.

No words can express my sincere sympathy for the loss of Duane to his family and friends. Duane had delivered chemicals to our site for years. When I heard the news, I could not believe it was our Duane. He will always be remembered for being an exceptional people-person. Always with a smile, loved to talk, and certainly loved to share his thoughts about his family who he adored. He will be greatly missed.

I was very shocked and saddened to hear of Duane's passing. Duane delivered supplies to The Mlk and Isaac Coggs Clinics on Thursdays. Duane was a very pleasant young man with a smile to brighten your day. He was always so patient. If he had to wait to get in, you'd open the door and he would be there waiting with a big smile on his face. Mrs. Jenkins our prayers are with you, your children, and family. May God comfort and keep you in this most difficult time.

Trina, this is a difficult time, but I offer you and your children my prayers that you have the strength to carry on today. I had the great pleasure to get to know Big Jenks back in 1993 from my cousins Kenny and Keith. And from Day 1, he was a cool guy who became like family. Again, your entire family will forever remain in my prayers.

Duane was one of the most personable young men that we have had the priviledge of knowing. His Wednesday deliveries were a bright spot in our week, bringing lots of joy and laughter. Our prayers are with his family and friends for peace and comfort knowing that although he will be sadly missed, he is at home with Jesus.

Duane made Wednesday deliveries to our Aurora-Advanced Healthcare facility in Port Washington. I just found out today of his passing and it was such a shock. I thought it was important for his family to know that he touched everyone he met in his job. He let us know how important his family was to him and that he was a Christian. Very friendly and kind, always. He will be sadly missed but I know he's in heaven now.

Trina,
Wow....Though our hearts are heavy, as I have promised God will give peace beyond our understanding. Know that I am so greatly appreciative for the joy you brought to my brothers life.
The day he married you was one of the happiest moments, another was when he lead his family to church to be baptized and accepted Christ as your personal Savior. That was the GREATEST gift you both gave to each other. It brings my heart joy to know that he with that GREAT BIG OLE smile he had is in Gods face just SMILING and the beautiful thing is, God is smiling even bigger right back at him.
The days to come will be tough but know that God's comfort IS sure.
I so admire your strength and I know that only God has given it to you to get you through and will continue to hold you in HIS arms to get you through the days to come . You know I am just a phone call away. I love you and will hold you and the kids high in prayer. Remember when your tears fall that before they even hit your cheek God has read the hurt in each and every one and sends the peace and comfort you'll need. Again I LOVE YOU MY SISTER!!!!

One of my favorite memories of Duane is at a company picinic he took time to play with my young son (who is now 23). From that day on Duane was his Hero!! And earned a special place in my heart.

I really miss my stepp dad (or I should say my dad because Duane did everything for me). I miss all the funny things Duane said and did, he used to always crack jokes on me and all I could do is laugh because he was just this AMAZING man! Duane always encouraged us especially me to keep good grades and focus. I remember he told me "If you fail to plan, You plan to fail." which means that you need to make good choices in life and choose who you associate with.Duane will go through life with me and before I do anything I will think of Duane and what he will think about my choice, and as long as I know Duane is in a good place I WILL suceed in life!

I am sorry to hear about Duanes passing.I am an employee at the sheboygan clinic and talked to him frequently when he made his deliveries here. He was such a fun loving friendly person. He often talked about his family. He told me about the time they went to the salvation army to help the less fortunate on Thanksgiving. He said it was important to him to have his children learn a lesson about helping others and to appreciate what you do have. It was apparent to me that he was a christian man. He will be sadly missed here.
